Ryan McMahon sparks comeback, Yankees beat Phillies 4-3 to end 3-game slide
NEW YORK (AP) — Ryan McMahon sparked a comeback with a tying, two-run double in a four-run second inning against Zack Wheeler, and the New York Yankees beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-3 Sunday to salvage the finale of a three-game series. Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto made a spectacular leaping grab and tag of Cody Bellinger at the plate for an inning-ending double play that denied the Yankees a run in the third. Austin Wells hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly and Trent Grisham an RBI single against Wheeler (9-4), who tied his career high with three hit batters — including two in a row in the second. Rookie Otto Kemp had his first big league multi-homer game and Nick Castellanos also went deep as the Phillies hit three solo shots off Carlos Rodón (11-8), who allowed four hits in 5 1/3 innings. Acquired Friday from Colorado, McMahon had a pair of hits and made a sliding stop to his glove side at third to throw out Realmuto in the second. Jonathan Loáisiga, Luke Weaver, Tim Hill and Devin Williams combined for one-hit shutout relief, with Williams striking out two in a perfect ninth for his 16th save in 17 chances. Yankees relievers entered with a big league-worst 7.11 ERA since June 28. New York stopped a three-game slide ended a sloppy streak of five straight games with errors. Phillies center fielder Johan Rojas threw out Bellinger trying to score on Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s 293-foot flyout in the third. Realmuto jumped and swiped down to tag Bellinger on the neck as the runner's feet slid wide of the plate and Bellinger reached to touch it with his left hand. Key stat New York won without a home run for the first time since June 22. Up next Phillies: LHP Cristopher Sánchez (9-2, 2.40) starts Monday night at the Chicago White Sox, who send RHP Davis Martin (2-8, 3.89) to the mound. ___

Yankees' new third baseman Ryan McMahon dazzles at plate and in field in badly needed win over Phillies
The Yankees still have to address their biggest need — pitching — in the coming days ahead of Thursday's trade deadline. But in the meantime, the first player they acquired to fill another big hole is paying immediate dividends. Advertisement Ryan McMahon delivered a strong game on both sides of the ball, with his two-run double keying a rally in addition to playing terrific defense at third base, with the Yankees needing all of it to squeak by the Phillies 4-3 on Sunday afternoon in The Bronx. The Yankees (57-48) made things hard on themselves by having to beat Zack Wheeler to avoid the sweep, but they were able to get to the Phillies ace with a four-run second inning before holding on late as the bullpen had a spotless day for a change. After Carlos Rodón lasted 5 ¹/₃ innings and left with a 4-3 lead, the Yankees got two outs from the struggling Jonathan Loáisiga, three from Luke Weaver and three from Tim Hill (against the top of the order) before Devin Williams shut the door on the Phillies (60-45) in the ninth. 4 Yankees third baseman Ryan McMahon hits a two-run double in the second inning against the Phillies on July 27, 2025. Robert Sabo for NY Post Advertisement 4 Yankees third baseman Ryan McMahon celebrates after hitting a two-run double in the second inning against the Phillies on July 27, 2025. JASON SZENES/ NY POST With the win, the Yankees pulled back within 5 ¹/₂ games of the Blue Jays in the AL East. McMahon, acquired from the Rockies on Friday after third base had been a black hole for most of the season, went 2-for-3 with two RBIs and a run scored in his second game. He also made a leaping grab on Bryce Harper's flare in the fourth inning and then made a sharp sliding stop on Trea Turner's grounder in the fifth and fired to first to nail the speedy shortstop. Advertisement That proved critical as Rodón got the next batter, Kyle Schwarber, to fly out to Cody Bellinger at the right field wall to strand a pair. 4 Yankees third baseman Ryan McMahon fields a groundout by the Phillies' Trea Turner in the fifth inning on July 27, 2025. JASON SZENES/ NY POST Rodón got burned by two pitches in the second inning that both left the yard and put the Phillies up 2-0. First was a 2-2 changeup over the middle to Nick Castellanos that ended up in the left field seats. One out later, Rodón threw a slider on the outside edge that Otto Kemp went the other way with for another solo shot. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS Advertisement But the Yankees were quick to answer, taking advantage of Wheeler's lack of command. Giancarlo Stanton led off the bottom of the second with a bullet single before Wheeler hit Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Jasson Domínguez in back-to-back plate appearances to load the bases. McMahon came up next and grounded a double down the right field line to tie the game, and it's possible it could have been a three-run hit if Domínguez had not for some reason stopped at second before running to third. 4 Yankees starter Carlos Rodon pitches against the Phillies on July 27, 2025. JASON SZENES/ NY POST But Austin Wells made sure it did not come back to hurt as he lifted a sacrifice fly — his ninth of the year, tying him for the MLB lead — to put the Yankees ahead 3-2. Trent Grisham followed with a single through the right side that scored McMahon for what proved to be the winning run. Kemp later added his second home run of the day — after entering Sunday with two home runs in 34 games in his big league career — by drilling Rodón's 95 mph fastball down the middle to pull the Phillies within 4-3.
